Malicious Office (OOXML) / .DOCX — malware analysis report

Heuristics 11

• CVE-2017-11882 — Equation Editor FONT record overflow critical CVE likely CVE_2017_11882
  (in altChunk RTF word/Cambodia.rtf) Equation Editor MTEF contains an overlong FONT typeface field, the vulnerable copy primitive for CVE-2017-11882. This is stronger evidence than the Equation Editor CLSID alone because it identifies the malformed record that drives code execution in EQNEDT32.EXE.
• Composite Moniker in RTF OLE object high CVE related RTF_COMPOSITE_MONIKER_RELATED
  (in altChunk RTF word/Cambodia.rtf) RTF contains Composite Moniker CLSID in OLE object context, but no nearby scriptlet/SCT payload was confirmed. Treat as related moniker attack-surface evidence rather than proof of CVE-2017-8570 exploitation.
• altChunk imports embedded RTF (RTF injection) critical OOXML_ALTCHUNK_RTF
  Document inlines an embedded RTF via an aFChunk relationship and a <w:altChunk> body element. This is the canonical RTF-injection wrapper used to smuggle RTF exploits (Equation Editor / URL Moniker / objdata) past DOCX-only scanners. Word opens the wrapper and executes the RTF inline. Recursing into the RTF for the exact exploit primitive.
• Split hex Equation Editor ProgID + OLE object critical RTF_EQUATION_EDITOR
  (in altChunk RTF word/Cambodia.rtf) RTF embeds the Equation.3 ProgID as hex bytes near OLE object activation and splits the byte stream with whitespace or an ignorable RTF group. This is an Equation Editor OLE activation surface commonly used by CVE-2017-11882 / CVE-2018-0802 exploit documents.
• PE header (with DOS stub) in hex data critical RTF_MZ_HEX
  (in altChunk RTF word/Cambodia.rtf) Hex-encoded PE (MZ + DOS stub) found inside RTF — likely an embedded executable payload
• altChunk RTF auto-updates embedded executable object critical OOXML_ALTCHUNK_RTF_AUTOUPDATE_PE
  OOXML document imports an embedded RTF through altChunk; the RTF contains OLE object data, forces object update, and carries a hex-encoded PE payload. This is a stronger compound exploit-loader shape than a generic altChunk RTF wrapper, but it is not tied to a single CVE unless the nested RTF object primitive also matches one.
• \objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATE
  (in altChunk RTF word/Cambodia.rtf) RTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
• Large hex data blocks in OLE object high RTF_EXCESSIVE_HEX
  (in altChunk RTF word/Cambodia.rtf) RTF contains ~1344KB of hex-encoded data inside \objdata sections — may hide a payload
• OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
  (in altChunk RTF word/Cambodia.rtf) RTF contains 2 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
• Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB
  (in altChunk RTF word/Cambodia.rtf) RTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
• Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
  One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
